My first port of call would be Suzanne King and Mark Dyball. If they haven't
done the work they will know if someone else has.

Subject: [PSCI-COM] Long-term effectiveness of outreach activities
Can anyone help please?
I'd be interested in learning of any research work that has examined the
longer-term influence and effectiveness of science outreach activities on
school-age children (any ages). For example, 'way back in the 90's the Royal
Society of Chemistry carried out the 'Huddersfield Project' where they
measured attitudes to chemistry and science in target populations in
Huddersfield before, during and after (short and long-term), a year of
various outreach activities. Are there any similar and/or more recent
studies?
All info welcomed, thanks very much
Dianne
